2009 BMW R1200GS Adventure
Nothing on earth comes between this bike and its destination. It is built without compromise to handle everything nature has to throw at it, be it on road or off. A first glance is enough to tell you this – and a first ride is enough to confirm it. The BMW R 1200 GS Adventure will excite you with its effortless throttle response and superb traction, not to mention the added comfort and versatility of such features as the optional Enduro ESA (Electronic Suspension Adjustment). This means that the chassis can be set up for the current riding conditions and load at the touch of a button, with adjustable damper settings and suspension height on both wheels. As a result, the suspension has the travel to prevent bottoming out on rough ground, but still delivers optimum roadholding in everyday use. In short, it’s up for any challenge.
Being Unstoppable means being one of a kind. The short first gear option is exclusive to the R 1200 GS Adventure, and reduces the already-low creep speed by a further 10 per cent, something which is particularly useful over broken ground in tight spaces. Because control is every bit as important as power – especially in the sort of terrain that other bikes can’t even reach in the first place. Other optional extras include ASC (Automatic Stability Control) and TPC (Tyre Pressure Control).
105 bhp and a torque of 115 Nm go together to provide dynamic riding fun
– a lasting pleasure thanks to the 33-litre fuel tank. Individualists
will find more ideas in the extensive range of special accessories. When will
you live your dream of unlimited freedom? The R 1200 GS Adventure is available
for you to test ride at your local dealer.
